What Dealer "throw-In" items for a new Class C?

Well, we are going to take the plunge and trade in our 2608WS on a Class C. We are pretty excited I've gotta say...

Now, the big question is "what do I want the dealer to "throw in" for a Claas C". Having been doing this for awhile with a TT we have all the gadgets, bells and whistles already; rhino tubes, power cables, dog bone connectors, extensions, OxyGenics shower, etc.

With the exception of installing new fan vent covers on top, what other Class C types of things should I be looking for? All ideas or suggestions most welcome!

Valve extenders if it doesn't have them! When we bought our first MH/Class C years ago it didn't come with them and we kicked ourselves for not having the dealer install them. It cost us a couple hundred dollars to have them done by a truck shop but could have been done before PDI.

A couple of hundred dollars for valve extenders, are they made of gold? I had 4 brass extenders installed in my duallys 2 weeks ago wheels off for $85.00.

When we bought our A the salesman said they couldn't do better on price but could work on tow dolly or 4 wheel down setup. At the time we were newbies and didn't know which way to go. I would think about that and see if they would work with you. Things I would also like now are grill quick connect, basement TV, add on shade for awning, surge protector. Hope that helps, Good Luck!

We bought a Sat. system and dealer installed. Get Fantastic fans, Window awnings, some FR's have installed vacuum cleaners. Prioritize a list. You won't get all.

Go for a water pump winterizing bypass if it doesn't have one. You will want it for winterizing.

They installed under mount coffee maker. I bought the tv but they installed in the back bedroom. The 1st stop of my maiden voyage I had jacks installed, covers for my roof top fans, etc. also had the in-motion satilite installed. Food for thought.

The only thing in my MH when I picked it up was a cheap dollar store thank-you card and two cans of beer They didn't even put a quarter tank of gas in, needle was on "E" when we got it.

I assume it has some sort of slide out. Recommend the dealer install a slide out awning.
